After installing csdpmi5b.zip, the "file not found" message

CauseWay error 03 : Non-standard protected mode program already active.
Please help, thanks!

The other protected mode program would be winxp. Can you run a true dos
program in xp? I suspect you may need a batch program to launch a dos
session (16bit), and then have it launch ex.exe, so causeway can then
toggle back to 32bit.

ex.exe has always run ok for me on XP,
and no one else has reported any problems.
It shouldn't be necessary to install any extra files.
I wonder if you have some funny process running on
your system that is interfering with the CauseWay
DOS extender.

You could also download a program called ProcessExplorer from
http://www.sysinternals.com and find out exactly what program
is running that is keeping yours from running.
In WinXP you can halt/stop/restart processes....

WOWEXEC.EXE handles both 16 and 32 bit DOS apps on XP
